Drift Ep. 5, Part 6 - S T A R (star)

[TheBang]

It reminds me of the Phonestrap series where Rick tried out wildly different musical ideas in each version over the original conceit.

I noticed that the last verse in this version also comes in on the offbeat, like the single/EP version, so I guess that was an intentional choice.

To an American, towy and tele sound exactly the same (whats a Towy?) and the two "drs" is also weird.

Best Sequence:
Nye Bevan at the top, I spy Iggy Pop, Iggy Pop at the wheel

The beat drop and full-layered comeback at Iggy Pop is perfection.

Nice new version, but I prefer the original better.

I do not _hate_ the rebel tech version as much as when I heard it on MAH. I daresay I even like it. still prefer the other though. and it would've been a nice punch at the end.

No comments on this? Now we know how Rebel Tech version sounds, presumably it will be on the Sampler edition, so its quite interresting to have it released as a preview what can we expect. From me big thumbs up, its such different and maybe more faster version than the original?

[dubman]

ok well if no one else will say it,

we've been talking about it in the regular S T a R thread. I hated it when I first heard it, but I came around to it in the context of the album

On a totally unrelated note, I might stating the obvious, but I just discovered that they took inspiration in a children's book called... "Each Peach Pear Plum".

For the past couple years, they've added a new verse to S T A R live. I can't quite decipher some of it, but I'll put what I've got here, as well as audio clip. If anyone has any thoughts, please let me know.
